The First 100 Days: What Will You Accomplish?

(01/27/2009) Brian Mell

Borrowing from a phrase coined during the Roosevelt years, everybody is looking at newly elected President Obama and what his course of action will be to right what went wrong with the economy. All Quantum Leap references aside, if you had 100 days to accomplish a task, what would be your priorities?

During the Great Depression, Roosevelt had to act quickly to quell a national panic while, at the same time, stop the hemmoraging economic market. The moves he and his administration made were considered drastic at the time, with the Supreme Court later declaring some acts unconstitutional, but many eventually became acceptable operating procedures and are still in operation today, such as the Social Security Act.

Turning around a failing economy, or on a smaller scale, a failing business, requires a strong course of action, even to the extent of trying something new and unproven. Last time, I talked about innovation and the improvements upon existing models. Taking an approach completely opposite, Roosevelt and his administration crafted a new plan that moved the economy into uncharted territory.

Comparisons could be made between then and now. If you think about it, the Internet Age is still relatively young. We're just discovering what we can do with the technology and there's still plenty of room for growth, even in this uncertain period in history. So, with 100 days given to you and the economy being a little scary right now, what will you accomplish? As Roosevelt expressed at the time, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
